Photonic
Builds technology to integrate quantum computing capabilities into network infrastructure, enabling quantum processing to be deployed closer to networked data paths.
Overview
Photonic develops systems to bring quantum computing capabilities directly into network infrastructure, positioning its work at the intersection of quantum compute and networking to enable quantum-aware network services and workflows. The company emphasizes integration of quantum hardware and software with networking stacks rather than standalone quantum processors. Photonic closed an undisclosed $200M financing on 2026-05-14 led by Planet First Partners at a $2.0B valuation, the sole disclosed round and total raised to date. Its key differentiator is a network-centric approach to deploying quantum compute within operational networks.
